Weddings

[aspin]

That was a shame

Cakes not weddings

Someone stole the rest of a cake I had for my mothers funeral
Well I don't know if they did but it disappeared

To this day we don't know where it went

It was her Xmas cake and I had not got the almond paste on or icing when she died so i just took the cake up to have with the tea
( in those days tea was in the house now its in the pub )so that was another story about a lost cake

Elizabeth I was off to bed am now goodnight

what beautiful photographs ... keep them coming
This photo is of my grandfather's sisters son's (is that 2nd cousins?) wedding in America in the 50s ...

He is your first cousin once removed.

Common ancestor is your great grandfather who was his grand father.

Count the "g"s to each of you

G Grand father is two Gs for you
Grandfather is one G for him.

Smallest number is one G and so first cousin.
Difference is one G (two minus one) and so once removed.

Fascinating thread!  Acouple from me

My Aunt Clara and Uncle Perc married 23 November 1923 in Port Adelaide South Australia.  The other photo is of Clara two years earlier in 1921 in Prahran Victoria beautifully restored by Polldoll.

Sadly, she cut up her wedding dress 7 years later for me. I was Rose Queen in May holidays 1965.
